Our interior defense is lacking. The Wolves are getting whatever shot they want.

Paolo does not have any clue how to defend a pick and roll when his man is such an experienced screener and rim runner like Gobert.
He doesn't have the size to guard Gobert. We should've started Isaac.

If Min had a better backcourt they might be the best team in the league. Pretty freaking good as it is.

When you make Golbert look like prime Shaq on offense you might as well pack your bags. Happened at home and happening again.

I for sure thought we would have gotten a lineup change during the timeout.

Are the Magic the only team in the NBA the Wolves would defend like this?

Rudy on the point guard.
